This LIR forms part of the local authorities’ responses to the Cambridge to Huntingdon Improvement Scheme. 1.2. The LIR is defined in section 60(3) of the Planning Act 2008 as ‘a report in writing giving details of the likely impact of the proposed development on the authority’s area (or any part of that area)’. 1.3. This LIR contains a section on the existing characteristics of the local area on which the scheme impacts. This identifies the local urban and landscape qualities, cultural heritage, ecology, minerals and waste sites, the environment for pedestrians, cyclists and equestrian travellers, watercourses and the air quality and noise environment. The report also provides an assessment and considers compliance of the scheme against the local plans and policies and details the history and development of the scheme. 1.4. Section 7 identifies the existing transport movements and routes in the area of the scheme. The ‘Local Impacts’ section contains an assessment of positive, negative impacts, during construction and operation of the scheme, as well as areas where there are missed opportunities for the Applicant to contribute to improving the local area through the scheme. 1.5. The following terms used throughout the document are explained here: ‘The local authorities’ – Cambridgeshire County Council, Huntingdonshire District Council, South Cambridgeshire District Council, Cambridge City Council. ‘Applicant’ –Highways England ‘Development Consent Order’ – Legal order related to the A14 Cambridge to Huntingdon Improvement Scheme ‘Environmental Statement’ – The Environmental Statement produced by Highways England and submitted to support the Development Consent Order application on 31 December 2014. ‘Construction’ – Phase commencing in 2016 until 2020. ‘Operation’- Phase commencing after construction, post 2020. 3 A14 Cambridge To Huntingdon Improvement Scheme – Joint Local Impact Report – Submission to PINS v.1 2.

The largest settlements are Huntingdon to the west and Cambridge to the east. Between these urban areas lie numerous settlements including, the Hemingfords, Swavesey, Fenstanton, Fen Drayton, Longstanton, Oakington, Girton, Histon and Impington and Milton, all north of the A14, with Hilton, Conington , Boxworth, Lolworth, Bar Hill, Dry Drayton, Madingley, Girton and Orchard Park all south of the existing A14. South of Huntingdon lie the settlements of the Offords, Buckden, Brampton and Godmanchester. 2.2.3. In terms of cultural heritage the Earthwork on Mill Common, Huntingdon and Huntingdon Castle are both known archaeological assets classified as Scheduled Monuments.

In terms of the existing noise environment there are approximately 28 areas along the A14 corridor which have been classified as ‘Important Areas’ by the Department for Environment, Farming and rural Affairs (Defra) on account of the existing noise environment4. These areas are at Alconbury, Brampton, Huntingdon, Godmanchester, Hemingford Abbot, Fenstanton, Swavesey, Dry Drayton, Girton, around the Cambridge Northern Bypass and in Impington.

  • Cambridge Nature Network Final Report
    Cambridge Nature Network Final Report FOREWORD I’m delighted to introduce this important report. For years, now, we have known we need to ensure nature’s recovery, and for years that has been an all-too-elusive ambition. In fact, we are still overseeing nature’s decline. It’s a ship that simply must be turned around. Now we have a clear way forward. This report, building on the ambition to double nature in Cambridgeshire, tells us precisely how and where we can do it. Working from the ground up, looking at real places and the actual state of nature, it offers for the first time a tangible plan for the revitalisation of nature in the 10km around the city of Cambridge, based on what is already there and how it can be brought back to life. And there’s more. Fully integrated with the vision for nature recovery is one for the enhancement and creation of green spaces for public recreation and refreshment – vital needs, as we have come to understand fully during the covid-19 crisis. The risk with nature recovery is that in our enthusiasm we may do the wrong thing in the wrong place: plant trees on peat or valuable grassland, or put hedgerows in where the landscape should be open. This report will ensure we do the right thing in the right place. It provides a place-based analysis of where existing nature sites can be enhanced, what kind of nature-friendly farming to encourage, how to create stepping-stones to create new, linked nature networks, and how, overall, the ambition for doubling nature can be met.
